Does anyone remember how to access the database that lists the former residents of your house?

I can't find it by searching for it, and I don't remember where it was. Thanks!

is this it?


I tried a couple pages and they are not readable, can only make out a little....


If the house you are researching is in Maplewood, you may find it helpful to search the real estate listing cards which are now available on-line through the library's website. I don't recall seeing lists of names of owners but you will find the actual listings themselves along with marginal notes made by the realtor who donated these files to the library. Listings include information such as date of listing, asking/sale price, features, photographs (helpful if additions and/or major renovations were made at some point) etc. The more frequently the house was listed, the more information likely to be available.


My house isn't listed on the library database


It's interesting to see where people were born. Lots of residents from Italy and "Eire," but we don't see nearly as much Irish influence these days.

My house was a boarding house owned by a 50-year-old Irish lady with eight tenants. Quite a crowd!
